Hey as a project to improve my programing skills I've begun programing a nice code editor in python to teach myself project management, version control, and gui programming. I was wanting to utilize syntax files made for other programs so I could have a large collection already. I was wondering if there was any kind of universal syntax f...
Hi, I was wondering if it was possible to group/organize conditional statement blocks in gedit in much the same manner as notepad++, via a plug-in or other means. Thanks to all in advance. http://i50.tinypic.com/2vuyd5f.png (Image, for reference.) ...
The answer to this must be somewhere but I'm not finding it -- can anyone help me understand why in Gedit, if I have a page of code there is no extra trailing blank line, but then when I do a file comparison for my svn commit it shows an extra line being added at the end of the file? I have a feeling that Gedit is automatically adding a...

But Is there a way to undo continuously like vim(I recall a command in vim can even undo changes by time!) in vi? Thanks in Advance. Edit: I am using vi version 3.10 ...
Is syntax highlighting there on vi?. I am sshing to an AIX box via putty in windows xp and using vi. I would like to know if there is syntax highlighting feature in vi.(My google-fu failed as all the results pertaining to vi point to vim). If this exists, Is it possible to get the colors in putty?.(I doubt it though, as sending the color...
I've been using VIM for a few weeks now while messing with various web languages and I'm really enjoying it. I find it cumbersome having to tab or click into my browser and refresh the page to see the effect of a code change. It's even more annoying as I'm using Virtual Box and I tend to be working from PDF files on the host system so I...
Has anyone built a text editor that has somewhat the same functionality as TextMate but for the web? It would be really cool to see something that: Doesn't have any GUI buttons Has all the base textmate keyboard shortcuts (e.g. highlight text and hit quotes key, and it wraps text in quotes, or hold ALT+SHIFT and highlight text and it ...

I've been using Notepad++ for a while; in fact, I've even started using Launchy for that "load this resource into the editor right now" functionality that many fuller IDE's like Eclipse has. It has syntax highlighting, split window view, code collapsing, parentheses (and other delimiter) paring, automatic indent, block commenting. Howe...

I cannot figure out how to do this. All I want to do is to select some text and then change the color of that text to red, say. I've lost 20 minutes of my life trying to do this. Typing 'font color' into help search brings up a reference to lesson 2, which doesn't even contain the word font or color. (Is TextWrangler low quality?) How...
The VS2010 Power Tools provide functions to move lines up/down but I found these have stopped working. No amount of fiddling, reinstalling Power Tools, rebinding keystrokes, etc. has got them working again. Only after adding the Action.MoveUp and Action.MoveDown commands to my Edit | Advanced menu, where I thought I had seen them before,...
I use the builtin f3/f4 bindings in emacs a lot to record and repeat macros, and find it to be a very powerful and useful feature, especially when combined with search. However, I noticed recently that whenever I do a query-replace (M-S-5 by default) that recording my macro stops! Is there a way to prevent this? I know that query-replace...
In Vim 7, Ctrl-X Ctrl-O shows a list of possible values but I find this sequence of keys to be too long when I frequently use the autocomplete feature. For instance, in an HTML file, I'd like to see the list automatically popup after I type a < followed by one or two letters. In a CSS file, I'd like to see the list after I hit the ":" ke...
As I'm always dissatisfied with existing editors, a project I always wanted to start is my own text editor. However doing text editing is serious business. Besides analyzing the source code of existing text editors, is there any book or other resource (like academic work) about this topic? I'm interested especially in something that tea...
Trying to code a basic text editor to play around with Java's file objects and classes. What I cannot seem to figure out is how to go about developing something like the 'nano' interface. Or 'vim' interface, for that matter. File creation is not a problem, its editing on the fly, and post-creation editing, that has just got me. Any ide...

I am inspecting a huge html file with many levels of nested div tags. I am looking for an editor which clearly tells me where the closing tag is located when I select a tag. In Visual studio the way it works it highlights it but I still can't find it! In Notepad++, it creates vertical lines but with so many lines my eyes get crossed! S...
